A typing speed test: How’d you learn — and how fast are you?
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
For our weekend edition of TOTD, here’s something I thought was kind of fun. I couldn’t get many takers on my other blog, but I’m sure the regular visitors to TOTD will get a kick out of it.
How fast can you type? Visit this site and take the one-minute test. Let us know how you did. My best time so far is 77 words in a minute — no mistakes.
I learned in high school, in a class that used manual typewriters. Then, in college, I was the first journalism class to use electric typewriters in the j-lab. Whoopee!
What’s your story about learning to type?
And how’d you do on the test?
Kurt is the director of social media for the Post-Dispatch, where he has worked since August 2002. He's been a journalist since 1982, covering municipal government, courts, education and two hurricanes as a reporter before becoming an editor. 
I typed 20 words per minute with two fingers. Does that mean I get a 100 words per minute score since I’m competing against those using 10 digits? Just kidding of course.
you typed 106
0 errors
We have some whiz kids on here! Wow! You guys do rock!

#33: Suzyjax. Nice going. You must enjoy an interesting career. Did you receive any interesting -grad school offers? Maybe from Rankin, or perhaps from Ms. Hickey’s?
I find it interesting that this test “doesn’t count” mistakes against your word count.
That’s why I learned to type slowly but accurately. If I typed a zillion words a minute back in the day, and made a zillion minus 1 errors, that would have been a score of 1 word per minute.

I can not agree with you in 100% regarding some thoughts, but you got good point of view…
